Like I said. That poor girl deserves a raise. BTW I hope she’s over 18. She looked very young from that picture you (unfortunately) sent me.
You probably printed that picture and have it taped on the ceiling above your bed
 
I doubt AA would be the only one pushing back routes and equipment since inspectors affect the entire industry. Dude, wait till phase 2 of govt shutdown. Phase 1 effects wont be fully felt for a few months.

It’s already happening. AS is delaying starting some new routes, and DL may have to delay the A220’s entry into service.
 
FAA order Safety Inspectors and Engineers back to work.

AA was able to get three new planes in the air that were parked due to no FAA.

They are back to work unpaid.

in fairness to weez, they do have to be available. At least 12 by constitution.
But Fly reported to me tonight that it may all be for not. If the union nickles and dimes next session over scope then things may be shut down as the company may have to reassess its offer in the midst of a prolonged governmental shutdown that is costing this industry millions and will be billions in 6 months.
Most short range flights may be scaled back or canceled. Layoffs to follow.
American management, according to fly, is putting in a contingency plan.
From what i heard, its not like they would purposely be blowing the union off but it wouldnt look good for the company to be giving us the offer it wanted to give, during the shutdown, when all the other unions will want the same thing.
Mediator schedules will also be affected imo if this goes past April.

In other words, this union may hose us in limbo, caught in a trap, as the window closes due to the shutdown.
Where is the offer from the company you said you would post months ago?

Is it two weeks away?
 
assessing the current negotiations, the ta needs to come out for a vote so we can assess the voice of members.
There is no leverage in this situation since the union already went for the dues grab. Little else can be done. Employees need to vote
Vote on what?

There is no TA nor final offer.

And you can’t vote.

you arent going to get the company to increase the offer. So the only path is peb with no self help or agree to arbitration. Eventually, it will be an imposed contract, arbitration, or a ta.Thats the story. You and weez are wasting our time.
Stalling isnt going to put more pressure on the company.

Just show us what will eventually be 'imposed' -- you have claimed to have the details... let's see them!

“The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.”

You do know there are only two ways for a contract to be imposed?

The company can impose at the end of a 30 day cooling off period or Congress legislates it an POTUS signs it into law.

Stop with the fear mongering. Your not fooling anyone.
